Finishing one top before starting another?
#81
My own rule? Finish one project before starting another, but I will have two going at one time. Currently, I'm pretty much sticking to that rule. I have a TATW that I corrected a mistake in that is waiting for the LA that I can us to become available. (If I can figure out how to sandwich it myself, I may just go ahead and do it on my machine, not sure yet.) I also just finished the last block for a D9P, next step there is to starch the block (from what I read, this is a good way to ensure more accurate cuts?) cutting them apart, and then rearranging them, labeling the rows, and putting them back together.
I want to finish the scrapbook I'm currently working on, and I may go ahead and pull out the wall hanging that I got to go in our family room. Since we bought a new entertainment center, we had to take down some pictures, and I'm not inclined to put them back up, thus freeing room for some wall hangings instead.

I feel like I'm the odd one here. I personally love quilting more than making tops. Of course, I hand quilt them which would kind of make you think I would like piecing them more. But in order to quilt one I need to make the tops and I'm always thinking of who I want to make a quilt for next. But I think the main reason for this is that I only have a limited supply of fabrics (since I don't have a job yet I'm not allowed to buy any fabric) but it kind of takes more time to quilt them so I can still spend my time quilting instead of doing nothing at all...of course, I could spend that time looking for a job...

I jump around. I had 4 quilts to finish, and I did two of them. Now, I have finished another separate one and have another two in the works, back to 4.
I see something I like and next thing you know I working on it. lol
